Looting' DR Congo rebels begin Goma pullout

Looting' DR Congo rebels begin Goma pullout

By Stephanie Aglietti | AFP – 1 hour 28 minutes
ago

The government of the Democratic Republic of Congo
accused rebels Wednesday of looting in Goma as the fighters began pulling out
of the strategic eastern city following diplomatic mediation to prevent the
conflict spreading across the region.

The Red Cross also reported that it had buried 62 people
whose bodies were found in the streets of Goma in the days following its
capture by the M23 group, which launched an uprising against the DR Congo
government in April.

Government spokesman Lambert Mende charged that the
rebels had plundered buildings "from top to bottom" across the city,
including an attempt to rob the central bank, and taken the loot across the
border to Rwanda, which Kinshasa accuses of backing the M23.

He said those behind "such barbaric acts answer for
their actions before the courts, both national and international".

Residents said dozens of trucks carrying food and
ammunition had left Goma, the main city in the Kivu region on the borders of
Rwanda and Uganda which has been the flashpoint for past wars in central
Africa's largest country.

At stake is control of Kivu's vast mineral wealth, which
include cobalt, copper, diamonds, gold and coltan, a key component in mobile
phones.

UN peacekeeping chief Herve Ladsous said the process of
pulling out had apparently already begun, a week after the rebels easily
overran Goma as they swept across the east, heightening fears of a major
conflict and a humanitarian crisis with tens of thousands of people displaced.

"It seems that the advances have stopped," he
said. "If anything there were signs tonight that they were either getting
out of Goma or getting ready to do that."

But he said the withdrawal could only be confirmed by the
UN mission on Wednesday.

In the streets of Goma, life appeared to be returning to
normal, AFP correspondents said. Shops were open, taxis were running and while
there were a few rebels posted at junctions, their presence has been scaled
down considerably.

A Western military source has estimated the number of
rebels at 1,500 in the North Kivu region of which Goma is the capital.

A local official said residents had reported that the
trucks were heading towards Rutshuru and Rumangabo, both rebel-held towns north
of Goma. But the M23 were still occupying the town of Sake, which lies on the
road towards the South Kivu capital of Bukavu.

M23 military commander Sultani Makenga, who was hit this
month by UN and US sanctions over alleged atrocities committed by the rebels,
said on Tuesday the fighters had started moving out provisions, medical
supplies and ammunition.

The rebel moves come after a weekend summit of regional
African leaders called on the M23 to leave Goma, but also urged the DR Congo
government of President Joseph Kabila to address their grievances.

The rebellion erupted in April when the M23, largely made
up of ethnic Tutsis, broke away from the DR Congo army, complaining that a 2009
peace deal to end a previous conflict had not been fully implemented.

On Tuesday, Makenga said his men would quit Goma "in
three days at the latest" and would pull back 20 kilometres (12 miles) under
a deal struck in Kampala with east African leaders.

But M23 political leader Jean-Marie Runiga told
journalists they had a list of demands, including direct talks with Kabila, who
was re-elected last year in a flawed presidential vote, and the dissolution of
the electoral commission.

They have also demanded the release of opposition
standard-bearer Etienne Tshisekedi, a former prime minister under unofficial
house arrest since declaring himself the victor of last year's election.

On Wednesday, Congo's Red Cross said its workers had
picked up and buried 62 bodies from the streets of Goma in the days following
its capture.

"They are those of civilians and soldiers, only
adults," its president Dominique Lutula told AFP.

The UN has issued a damning report accusing both Rwanda,
and to a lesser extent Uganda, of backing the rebels.

Both countries vehemently deny the allegations.

But the scope of the advance suggested that the M23 had
outside help. In just a week, they expanded their area of control from one small
corner of North Kivu to cover almost the entire province, an area twice the
size of Belgium.

Rights group and UN officials have accused the rebels of
atrocities, including the killings, rapes and abductions of civilians, which
forced tens of thousands to flee their homes.

The powder-keg region was the cradle of two wars that
shook DR Congo between 1996 and 1997, and then again from 1998 to 2003, with
Rwanda and Uganda playing active roles.

SUMMARY : THE TRAGIC CONSEQUENCES OF THE BRITISH BUDGET SUPPORT AND GEO-STRATEGIC AMBITIONS

United Kingdom's Proxy Wars in Africa: The Case of Rwanda and DR Congo:The Rwandan genocide and 6,000,000 Congolese and Hutu refugees killed are the culminating point of a long UK’s battle to expand their influence to the African Great Lakes Region. UK supported Kagame’s guerrilla war by providing military support and money. The UK refused to intervene in Rwanda during the genocide to allow Kagame to take power by military means that triggered the genocide. Kagame’s fighters and their families were on the Ugandan payroll paid by UK budget support.· 4 Heads of State assassinated in the francophone African Great Lakes Region.· 2,000,000 people died in Hutu and Tutsi genocides in Rwanda, Burundi and RD.Congo.· 600,000 Hutu refugees killed in R.D.Congo, Uganda, Central African Republic and Rep of Congo.· 6,000,000 Congolese dead.· 8,000,000 internal displaced people in Rwanda, Burundi and DR. Congo.· 500,000 permanent Rwandan and Burundian Hutu refugees, and Congolese refugees around the world.· English language expansion to Rwanda to replace the French language.· 20,000 Kagame’s fighters paid salaries from the British Budget Support from 1986 to present.· £500,000 of British taxpayer’s money paid, so far, to Kagame and his cronies through the budget support, SWAPs, Tutsi-dominated parliament, consultancy, British and Tutsi-owned NGOs.· Kagame has paid back the British aid received to invade Rwanda and to strengthen his political power by joining the East African Community together with Burundi, joining the Commonwealth, imposing the English Language to Rwandans to replace the French language; helping the British to establish businesses and to access to jobs in Rwanda, and to exploit minerals in D.R.Congo.

Kagame killed 200,000 Hutus from all regions of the country, the elderly and children who were left by their relatives, the disabled were burned alive. Other thousands of people were killed in several camps of displaced persons including Kibeho camp. All these war crimes remain unpunished.The British news reporters were accompanying Kagame’s fighters on day-by-day basis and witnessed these massacres, but they never reported on this.

25,000 Hutu bodies floated down River Akagera into Lake Victoria in Uganda.

The British irrational, extremist, partisan,biased, one-sided media and politicians have disregarded Kagame war crimes e.g. the Kibeho camp massacres, massacres of innocents Hutu refugees in DR. Congo. The British media have been supporting Kagame since he invaded Rwanda by organising the propaganda against the French over the Rwandan genocide, suppressing the truth about the genocide and promoting the impunity of Kagame and his cronies in the African Great Lakes Region. For the British, Rwanda does not need democracy, Rwanda is the African Israel; and Kagame and his guerilla fighters are heroes.The extremist British news reporters including Fergal Keane, Chris Simpson, Chris McGreal, Mark Doyle, etc. continue to hate the Hutus communities and to polarise the Rwandan society.

Kagame political ambitions triggered the genocide.

Kagame’s guerrilla war was aimed at accessing to power at any cost. He rejected all attempts and advice that could stop his military adventures including the cease-fire, political negotiations and cohabitation, and UN peacekeeping interventions. He ignored all warnings that could have helped him to manage the war without tragic consequences. Either you supported Kagame’ s wars and you are now his friend, or you were against his wars and you are his enemy. Therefore, Kagame as the Rwandan strong man now, you have to apologise to him for having been against his war and condemned his war crimes, or accept to be labelled as having been involved in the genocide. All key Kagame’s fighters who committed war crimes and crimes against humanity are the ones who hold key positions in Rwandan army and government for the last 15 years. They continue to be supported and advised by the British including Tony Blair, Andrew Mitchell MP, and the British army senior officials.

Aid that kills: The British Budget Support financed Museveni and Kagame’s wars in Rwanda and DRC.

Genocide propaganda and fabrications are used by the so-called British scholars, news reporters and investigative journalists to promote their CVs and to get income out of the genocide through the selling of their books, providing testimonies against the French, access to consultancy contracts from the UN and Kagame, and participation in conferences and lectures in Rwanda, UK and internationally about genocide. Genocide propaganda has become a lucrative business for Kagame and the British. Anyone who condemned or did not support Kagame’s war is now in jail in Rwanda under the gacaca courts system suuported by British tax payer's money, or his/she is on arrest warrant if he/she managed to flee the Kagame’s regime. Others have fled the country and are still fleeing now. Many others Rwandans are being persecuted in their own country. Kagame is waiting indefinitely for the apologies from other players who warn him or who wanted to help to ensure that political negotiations take place between Kagame and the former government he was fighting against. Britain continues to supply foreign aid to Kagame and his cronies with media reports highlighting economic successes of Rwanda. Such reports are flawed and are aimed at misleading the British public to justify the use of British taxpayers’ money. Kagame and his cronies continue to milk British taxpayers’ money under the British budget support. This started from 1986 through the British budget support to Uganda until now.

Dictator Kagame: No remorse for his unwise actions and ambitions that led to the Rwandan genocide.

No apologies yet to the Rwandan people. The assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana by Kagame was the only gateway for Kagame to access power in Rwanda. The British media, politicians, and the so-called British scholars took the role of obstructing the search for the truth and justice; and of denying this assassination on behalf of General Kagame. General Paul Kagame has been obliging the whole world to apologise for his mistakes and war crimes. The UK’s way to apologise has been pumping massive aid into Rwanda's crony government and parliement; and supporting Kagame though media campaigns.

Kagame receives the British massive aid through the budget support, British excessive consultancy, sector wide programmes, the Tutsi-dominated parliament, British and Tutsi-owned NGOs; for political, economic and English language expansion to Rwanda. The British aid to Rwanda is not for all Rwandans. It is for Kagame himself and his Tutsi cronies.

This blog reports the crimes that remain unpunished and the impunity that has generated a continuous cycle of massacres in many parts of Africa. In many cases, the perpetrators of the crimes seem to have acted in the knowledge that they would not be held to account for their actions.

The need to fight this impunity has become even clearer with the massacres and genocide in many parts of Africa and beyond.

The blog also addresses issues such as Rwanda War Crimes, Rwandan Refugee massacres in Dr Congo,genocide, African leaders’ war crimes and crimes against humanity, Africa war criminals, Africa crimes against humanity, Africa Justice.

Venerating Kagame: The UK celebrate the expansion of their influence to Rwanda

As planned by Kagame before he took power, all French related institutions (businesses,NGOs, schools, RFI, cultural centres) are banned and expelled from Rwanda and replaced by the British ones.The French language is banned in education, administration and businesses, and is replaced by the English language. All public and private institutions have been renamed in English. The French language has been removed from the National ID cards. Rwanda unilaterally left the Communauté économiqe des états de l'Afrique centrale to join the East African Community controlled by the UK. Next: full and unconditional admission to Commonwealth.

-The British relentless and long running battle to become the sole player and gain new grounds of influence in the francophone African Great Lakes Region has led to the expulsion of other traditional players from the region, or strained diplomatic relations between the countries of the region and their traditional friends. These new tensions are even encouraged by the British using a variety of political and economic manoeuvres.

-General Kagame has been echoing the British advice that Rwanda does not need any loan or aid from Rwandan traditional development partners, meaning that British aid is enough to solve all Rwandan problems.

-The British obsession for the English Language expansion has become a tyranny that has led to genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, dictatorial regimes, human rights violations, mass killings, destruction of families, communities and cultures, permanent refugees and displaced persons in the African Great Lakes region.- Rwanda, a country that is run by a corrupt clique of minority-tutsi is governed with institutional discrmination, human rights violations, dictatorship, authoritarianism and autocracy, as everybody would expect.

“The enemies of Freedom do not argue ; they shout and they shoot.”

The principal key root causes that lead to the Rwandan genocide of 1994 that affected all Rwandan ethnic groups were:

1)The majority Hutu community’s fear of the return of the discriminatory monarchy system that was practiced by the minority Tutsi community against the enslaved majority Hutu community for about 500 years

2)The Hutu community’s fear of Kagame’s guerrilla that committed massacres in the North of the country and other parts of the countries including assassinations of Rwandan politicians.

3) The Rwandan people felt abandoned by the international community ( who was believed to support Kagame’s guerrilla) and then decided to defend themselves with whatever means they had against the advance of Kagame’ guerrilla supported by Ugandan, Tanzanian and Ethiopian armies and other Western powers.

UKAFRICA POST : Your Right to Know

Under US and UK's green light, thousands of Hutu Refugees were slauthered by Kagame in DR Congo

Under the green light of USA and UK, Thousands of Hutu Refugees were slaughtered by Kagame 's soldiers following their attack of refugees camps in i996. Other Hutu refugees were massacred during their attempt to return home. Most of them did not reach their home country. These crimes remained unpunished.

Kagame's war and its impact in DR Congo:

Did really Barak Obama deserve to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace? The international community is racist. Hutus refugees in DR Congo were massacred by Kagame in the same way. Because DR Congo and Hutu refugees are black, let them die. A Congolese toddler in Goma seeking help after her mum was killed by M23 rebels supported by Kagame.

Susan Rice: a cheater, irresponsible and corrupt woman

Susan Rice: a cheater, irresponsible and corrupt woman: US and UN have supported and protecting the Rwandan dictator and war criminal Paul Kagame who has ordered and supported the death of almost 8 million people both in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Ms. Susan Rice has been at the forefront of trying to shield the Rwandan government, and Mr. Kagame in particular, from international censure, even as several United Nations reports have laid the blame for civilians massacred and genocide of Hutu community in DR Congo. Susan Rice advised Bill Clinton not to intervene in Rwanda to prevent the massacres of civilians by Kagame’s war and to prevent genocide in Rwanda and DR Congo. UK, Uganda and US opted to provide more arms, intelligence, media and diplomatic support to Kagame’s guerrilla war, which contributed to massacres of civilians and genocide of hutu and tutsi in Rwanda and DR Congo.

UK aid that kills

UK aid financed Museveni and Kagame’s mass killings, rapes, genocides and war crimes from Uganda to Rwanda; and from Rwanda and Uganda to D.R. Congo.

Guilty of not speaking English: Tears, rapes, bloodshed, terror and horrors as the result of Museveni and Kagame’s liberation for the expansion of the East African Community to create a regional super state, of the British influence and of the English language to francophone countries of the African Great Lakes Region. British’s poor judgement of their geo-strategic ambitions and British endless and chronic rivalries against the French have led to human rights abuses and the killings of millions of innocent people in the Great Lakes Region.

400,000 refugees fleeing Kagame were massacred by Kagame's soldiers in Congolese forests. Thousands of elderly, children and pregnant women killed in the dark by Kagame’s soldiers. Hundred of pregnant women died giving birth. Thousands of children and elderly killed or lost in the forests. Others trying to flee were drown in lakes and rivers or died by exhaustion due to heavy rains, diseases and lack of food.Kagame has no remorse for the lives lost in Rwanda and D.R .Congo.

Museveni, Kagame and Nkunda ’s wars in D.R.

The assassination of President Juvenal Habyarimana by Kagame was the only gateway to access to power in Rwanda, to help Museveni and the British create and Anglophone super state that includes Rwanda, Burundi and D.R.Congo and to continue the fighting for the regime change in DR.Congo that will lead to easier access to minerals in RD Congo and to the implementation of the UK and Museveni’s plans for East African Political Federation.

Paying wages to Kagame’s guerrilla fighters from Ugandan and British taxpayer’s money.

General Paul Kagame was the Chief of Military Intelligence of the Ugandan National Resistance Army, which is funded by the UK government. Kagame had all necessary resources to plan his invasion to Rwanda, with the support by Ugandan army and paid mercenaries from Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Soudan, Ethiopia to fight against the former Rwandan small army. As a refugee ( as he claimed to be), Kagame was travelling around the world to prepare his war against Rwanda, a peaceful country. His multiple foreign trips on different Ugandan diplomatic passports with different names were used to transfer the money in his multiple foreign accounts on different names to purchase weapons and to get the support from the UK and other western sponsors. These trips were funded by the UK's aid aimed at to tackling poverty in Uganda. Kagame and his 20,000 fighters were paid as regular civil servants or soldiers through the UK's aid and Uganda taxpayer’s money since 1986 to 1998. Most Kagame's fighters were still on the Uganda payroll until 2000. After the war, hundreds of Kagame's fighters were sent to the UK to apply for refugee status. During the war, the former Rwandan government could not afford to purchase weapons because of having been restricted to do so by IMF and the World Bank under the Rwanda Structural Adjustment Programme. Furthermore, the UN Security Council imposed the former Rwandan Government an army embargo that weakened their position to fight the war while Kagame was receiving arms and ammunitions from the UK arms dealers and from the Ugandan army funded by the UK aid.

Rwanda has become a new British colony replacing the Belgians.

Despite human rights violations, a quasi-apartheid system of discrimination against the majority Hutu communities (86%), Hutu landlord's rights violations, lack of democracy and freedom of expression and association, denial of rights to independent legal representation, denial of hutus’ human rights to mourning and descent burial of their dead in the genocide ,political repression, obstruction of justice; Rwanda will be admitted in the Commonwealth soon. For example, it is impossible for anyone who speaks French to get a job in Rwanda.

The British support Museveni and Kagame’ wars to create the East Africa Federation.

The UK, Museveni and Kagame ‘s plans are to create and to consolidate the East African political federation, a regional super state whose first President will be Museveni. The francophone countries, Rwanda and Burundi, forcibly joined the East African Community which has adopted English as the only official language. Museveni and UK’s failed ambitions aimed creating a regional Anglophone bloc composed of Uganda, Burundi, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Ethiopia, R.D.Congo and Sudan.Museveni and the British have no remorse for the lives lost in the African Great Lakes Region.Kagame has been trying to impose the English language to other countries of the region through various political and economic tactics.

We are proud of our achievements

We are proud of our achievements ! This blog has done a good job so far. For the last 5 years we have been campaigning against war , huma rights violations and sexual violence against women and girls in Democratic Republic of Congo. The outcome of our campaign to the UK and USA is the pressure brought to bear on the dictator President Paul Kagame to end Rwanda's support to M23’s guerrilla war and human rights abuses. It is the UK and USA 's late realisation that British and American people have been supporting a wrong man (Paul Kagame) for the last 20 years. This is how we have achieved our goal. M23 has been politically and militarily defeated and Congolese people are starting to enjoy peace, security and human rights. The Congolese people can now focus on improving their lives through undertaking social and economic activities that will contribute to ending hunger, diseases, ignorance, poverty, illiteracy and malnutrition. But Kagame is unpredictable. He may re-start again to create a new military group in the next few years. We will continue our campaign until all perpetrators of human rights abuses and war crimes in Rwanda, DRC and all East Africa are brought to justice. We are not claiming a Nobel Prize. This is our humble contribution to a fairer and just world.

The war criminal and dictator Ugandan President Museveni supported Kagame to invade Rwanda in 1990. The Ugandan war against Rwanda culminated into the Rwandan genocide

USA President Bill Clinton and Kagame. The USA refused to intervene in Rwanda to stop the genocide hoping that their support to Kagame and Museveni will stop it. The USA also refused to stop the invasion by Kagame of Hutus refugee camps in DR Congo. This invasion led to the massacres of hundreds of thousands refugees in DR Congo. Over the last 16 years, more than 6 million lives have been lost in Congo – and the major perpetrators of those atrocities have been U.S. allies Rwanda and Uganda. The majority of victims have been children under the age of 5. Over the last 18 years, subsequent U.S. administrations have provided aid to the Rwandan and Ugandan regimes. The U.S. remains one of the top two donors of aid to Rwanda today( December 2012)

Kagame should face justice in relation to the war crimes he committed in Rwanda and DR Congo
